Motivation is a scam. There, I said it. If “just stay motivated” actually worked, we’d all be billionaires with six-packs by now. But motivation is nothing more than a sugar high — it spikes, it crashes, and it leaves you with guilt and excuses.
In this episode, I’m torching the motivation myth and giving you the truth: motivation isn’t what creates lasting change. Systems, discipline, micro-wins, and purpose do. I’ll show you why waiting to “feel like it” is killing your reinvention — and exactly what to do instead.
Because your Act II doesn’t need another Pinterest quote about hustle. It needs real, unsexy, effective action.
🎧 Hit play. Reinvent without waiting for motivation to show up.
